Mothers Stage “Nurse-In” at Clackamas Restaurant

CLACKAMAS, OR — Dozens of mothers nursed their babies Sunday at the Ram Restaurant in Clackamas Town Center to protest the restaurant’s treatment of a nursing mother a week earlier.  Restaurant patron Erin Klein says a manager asked her to cover up while nursing.  The manager cited complaints from other customers.  Oregon law permits breastfeeding in public. The restaurant learned this firsthand when a social media campaign brought the “nurse-in” to the Ram.

On Sunday, however, the restaurant welcomed the nursing mothers.  The Ram’s marketing manager described the event as a staff training opportunity.
